Eli Cheama's late father Fabian Cheama was a wonderful innovator in Zuni animal carvings, producing highly-detailed contemporary pieces starting in the early 80's that influenced many fellow artists. Eli is a great artist in his own right as evidenced in a delightful fish rock serpentine
Badger. A great contrasting mask is from jet, while expressive eyes are from turquoise inlays. An adorable nose is from jet as well. A beneficial badger's striking black and white face markings help them appear more intimidating and assists them in identifying family members. About 2 5/8" long, 1 3/8" wide and 7/8" tall.
